How do Teachers use Blackboard?

Teachers are likely to use Blackboard

• to announce tests and assignment due dates
• to distribute class notes
• to send email to their courses
• to receive assignments, through the digital drop box
• to manage online tests, self-tests and surveys
• to conduct online discussion
• to enable online group work
• to track your progress in the course
• to tell you your marks on assignments

Many teachers will require you to perform certain tasks on Blackboard every week of your course, in addition to your scheduled class hours.
